|3) QuickKeys (from what I've read) looks far superior to 101 Keys, but before
|	I lay out the $75, I have a few questions:

I use it with Apple's extended keyboard, I havn't tried it with any other.

|
|	1) will it run under multi-finder ?

Yes, it is multifinder compatible.  

|	2) under-multifinder will it switch between keysets?

Yes.  There are two key-sets available at any one time.  One is a universal
set that is available with all programs.  The other is the program key-set
that works only with that programming.  It autmatically switchs to the
appropiate key-set as you switch between programs under MultiFinder.
You can assign keys to either one just by clicking the appropiate button
in the Quickkeys box. Both sets are always available at anytime, with
the program set given priority over the universal set.

|	3) can you define the keys on the numeric keypad
|		(I'd like to have home and end work)
|	   can you distinguish whether num-lock mode or not?

You can define any key on the keyboard, including numeric and the special
keys.  I don't know about num-lock but it does let you modify each key
with shift, ctrl, option and cmd.  I don't remember enough combinitorics
(sp?) to tell how manys commands per key that is, but it's enough :-).

|	4) how much "drag" manipulation can you do.
|	   could you make a "goto to end of file" key easily for
|	   Word or ConcertWare?

As much as you could want (I think).  I have one key that drags the floppy
disk icon from it's normal position to the trash can (unmounting it).  You
can specify multiple clicks and option/cmd/ctrl/shift keys as well.  Another
that clicks the MultiFinder switch point (the small icon in the upper right).
Quickkeys also has special commands that will adjust scroll bars, including
beginning and end of file, page up/down and line up/down.  You can also
add keys to menu items (including DAs and MultiFinder Applications at the
bottom of the DA menu), add a date key, a reboot and shutdown keys and
sequences of the above.  Text, FKEYs and buttons can all be used from
Quickkeys.  For example I have one that will, in the Save File dialog,
press first the Save button, then the Yes to the Replace dialog.  Compatible
with MultiFinder and Suitcase.  Highly recommended.
